Two's Company

by Sue Haasler

Anna has a steady job, a good social life and a recently deceased relationship with unreconstructed hippy Nic. She has never changed a nappy or kissed a baby in her life, and that’s the way she intends to keep things. Then Laura, her best friend, announces she’s pregnant, Nic discovers he has a teenage son from a long-ago relationship, and Anna falls truly, madly, deeply in love - with one hitch. Anna’s new Mr Wonderful, Michael, comes complete with a baby daughter. Does Anna really want a baby in her life? As broken nights, toys on the floor, and the carnage of children’s parties take their toll, she begins to wonder. Then Fiona – blonde, beautiful, successful and, most worryingly, mother of the baby – reappears on the scene …

About the author

I'm a British author of contemporary and (recent) historical fiction, but have recently taken a detour into non-fiction by writing the official BBC Holby City tie-in book, 'Holby City: Behind the Screen.'

My new novel 'Half A World Away' (set in East Berlin before the Wall came down) is published by The Dome Press.

I'm currently working on a mystery/thriller set in the fashion world of 1960s London.

Can't remember much about it! Something about a woman with a perfect child-free life who suddenly has kids inflicted on her by friends and boyfriends.
